本研究探讨了犯罪分子在网上约会浪漫骗局中使用的说服技术。与20名参与者进行了面谈，其中包括金融和非金融受害者。本文首先研究了决策错误，发现受害者作出类似的错误相比，其他大众营销欺诈的受害者。它还建议，近赢现象是有用的，解释为什么个人仍然在骗局中，为什么有些人成为再次受害者。开发了一个名为“诈骗者说服技术模型”的模型，以突出骗局中涉及的过程。它提供了受害者的描述，并强调了犯罪分子如何在任何财务请求之前培养受害者。强调了使受害者参与骗局的各个阶段。
This study examined the persuasive techniques employed by criminals in the online dating romance scam. Twenty participants were interviewed, including financial and non-financial victims. The paper first examines errors in decision making and finds victims make similar errors compared with victims of other mass marketing frauds. It is also proposes that the near-win phenomenon is useful in explaining why individuals remain in the scam and why some become re-victimized. A model called the Scammers Persuasive Technique Model is developed to highlight the processes involved in the scam. It provides a description of the victim and highlights how criminals groom victims prior to any financial requests. The various stages that follow to keep the victim involved in the scam are highlighted.
